11.3.1 Edit User Authentication Timeout Settings

This screen allows you to set the default authentication timeout settings for the selected type of user account. These default authentication timeout settings also control the settings for any existing user accounts that are set to use the default settings. You can still manually configure any user account’s authentication timeout settings.

To access this screen, go to the Configuration > Object > User > Setting screen, and click one of the Default Authentication Timeout Settings section’s Edit icons.

DESCRIPTION

User Type

This read-only field identifies the type of user account for which you

 

are configuring the default settings.

 

• admin - this user can look at and change the configuration of the

 

NWA3000-N series AP

 

• limited-admin- this user can look at the configuration of the

 

NWA3000-N series AP but not to change it

 

• user - this user has access to the NWA3000-N series AP’s services

 

but cannot look at the configuration

 

 

Lease Time

Enter the number of minutes this type of user account has to renew

 

the current session before the user is logged out. You can specify 1 to

 

1440 minutes. You can enter 0 to make the number of minutes

 

unlimited.

 

Admin users renew the session every time the main screen refreshes

 

in the Web Configurator. Access users can renew the session by

 

clicking the Renew button on their screen. If you allow access users

 

to renew time automatically, the users can select this check box on

 

their screen as well. In this case, the session is automatically renewed

 

before the lease time expires.
